Moody: We get two entrepreneurs and residents right now, they happen to be both former HubSpotters. One of them is named Kevin Demowals; he ran AI for HubSpot the last eight years. He's starting an ocean company with another woman who used to work at HubSpot. And then we have about four or five other ones that are going to come in and work on stuff. Some of them have ideas that we'll work on inside of Propeller. Others will match with the team inside of Woods Hole Oceanographic.
